MSI presents their AMD 8 Series chipset lineup, including Lucid Hydra
The clear highlight here seems to be the MSI 870A-GD60 Hydra. It comes with Lucid Logix's prominent Hydra feature, using a different chip than on the Big Bang Fuzion by the way. It promises to let you combine GPUs from NVIDIA and ATI in a CrossFire/SLI like fashion for increased performance. Even though it does not deliver the most amazing scaling numbers just yet we are told that the driver "improves weekly".
The other motherboards cater to different pricing segments with adjusted features. Ranging all the way from price conscious overclocker to budget office users who wants to build an affordable rig without breaking the bank.
